We have lots of modifications to the en-US dictionaries in our tree. Might be worthwhile for somebody to try to do this, but I don't have an immediate plan to do this myself (mostly lack of time, etc) :/

Dictionaries yes, but AFAIK we have no local changes to the affix file, so we should attempt to keep it in sync with upstream.

How are affix files different? They're part of the "dictionary" as far as hunspell is concerned, right?

Sure, but they're separate at the file-level, and AFAIK there's no reason for us to treat them as a unit. If we can avoid local changes to the affix file (and help improve upstream), then we should do that.

This needs to go through Nemeth first. I only maintain the wordlist and use the affix file given to me by Nemeth.
